Re: Preventing Internet Explorer Access
Where I work, it depends on the Windows login what groups of sites we
can visit. Our traffic is being monitored by a proxy that checks the IP
and windows login to check if we can access certain sites.
LOL...and the weird thing is that I can't even access the ALLOWED
sites.. like glitnir.is and landsbanki.is (banks).
Weird right? =D
